I’m a software engineer who spent 5 years at Microsoft (Windows Shell), where I worked on core user-facing parts of Windows and later on an AI incubation team. I resigned in 2023 to study Mandarin full-time in Taiwan, but am now back in the US and looking for my next engineering role. I studied CS and Creative Writing at Brown, where I helped build what was then the largest undergraduate UI/UX course in the country. Solid fundamentals, strong UX background, and comfortable working in Mandarin.
I like building things that balance technical depth with human-centered design. I’m seeking roles where I can work across systems and product to make software that feels genuinely useful.
Location: Africa or REMOTE
Remote: yes
Willing to relocate: yes, to any location in Africa, where I can get the necessary permission to live and work. Occasional travel is possible.

Like this Ask HN: Recommend employers with positive social impact [https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31518945], I am looking for similar work, but I am open to work on any interesting project. I am a European software developer who has lived and worked on four continents. Now it's time to move on and so I am in the process to relocate to Africa.
I have more than a decade of experience running a company, doing software development, support and training and mentoring adults and students, as well as working on educational projects, and I am willing to take on a mixture of roles as needed to support a project.
I value good teamwork over fancy tech, and I don't shy away from working on legacy code. I am primarily motivated by solving problems, so let me help you solve your problems.
I am open to work for a company anywhere as long as the work can be done fully remote from Africa.
While I could find a job elsewhere I believe that the experience living in an area where my work is going to have an impact gives me a better understanding of the needs of the location I am serving. Whether it is through direct contact with clients and users or just by being part of a local community and learning about the reality of living there.
In addition, I want to use some of my income to hire local interns and junior developers and train them in order to pass on my experience. I also sponsor children that otherwise can't afford to go to school (see my website). If you want to support this, I would love to work with you. Also if you are interested in hiring African developers yourself. I can help you build up a team for you.
Location: UTC-6 (Americas)

Compensation Expectation: $140k and $170k USD gross yearly
Hello Hacker News! I'm a CompSci PhD (AI Multi-Agent systems... doing Agents' research back in 2004, before they were cool haha) and a passionate technologist with a warm spot for building high-impact products and teams.
For over 20 years, I've loved being a hands-on leader in FinTech, building everything from scalable crypto trading desks and AI/ML systems for fraud detection, to migrating entire platforms from monoliths to robust, cloud-native microservices. I thrive on aligning engineering with business goals and tackling complex distributed systems challenges.
Zero-to-One Success: Built foundational tech/AI/ML at a Fintech, enabling the company's Series A. Executive & Scaling Experience: CTO of a crypto trading desk; Head of Engineering, Product or AI/ML at high-growth FinTechs.
I'm actively looking for a remote role. I am most comfortable as first/founding engineer, also have been head-of/cto whatever the name building startup's technology teams. Right now I am most interested in doing AI/LLM work, like really pushing the status quo of both the Engineering and AI/ML. (I would love to get into something like SSI).

I’ve never worked at a FAANG company. If that’s a hard requirement, I’m not a fit and there’s no need to reach out. My LinkedIn is public; please review it before scheduling a meeting. Scheduling a call just to say “we only hire ex-FAANG” is a waste of both our time, and I’m comfortable calling that behavior out publicly.
Hi! I'm Branko, a web developer with an engineering background in Geodesy/GIS and 5+ years of customer support experience.

All I want for christmas is some gnarly problems to chew on, otherwise it's coal for Christmas.
I'm a data scientist with 20+ years experience who enjoys gnarly, avant-garde problems. I saved a well known German automaker from lemon law recalls. I've worked with a major cloud vendor to predict when servers would fail, allowing them to load shed in time.
Some of the things I've done:
- Live chip counting for estmating betting in casinos.
- Automotive part failure prediction (Lemon law recalls)
- Server fleet failure prediction allowing load shedding.
- Shipping piracy risk prediction - routing ships away from danger.
- Oil reservoir & well engineering forecasting production.
- Realtime routing (CVRP-PD-TW, shifts) for on demand delivery.
- Legal entity and contract term extraction from documents.
- Wound identification & tissue classification.
- The usual LLM and agent stuff. (I'd love to work on effective executive functioning)
- Your nasty problem here.
I have years of experience helping companies plan, prototype, and productionize sane data science solutions. Get in touch if you have a problem, my email is in my profile.

Hi! I'm a backend engineer with strong DevOps experience and mid-level frontend skills. Looking for a backend or backend-leaning full-stack role.
I worked at Automattic, the company behind WordPress; fully remote, async teams across the globe.
Clean coder, impact-driven, generalist, autonomous. Known for writing scalable, maintainable code with good test coverage. I've built and maintained time-sensitive, high-throughput, distributed services (millions of ops daily) and owned features and small- to mid-sized projects end-to-end from design to deployment.
Most of my career has been in large enterprises (7+ YOE), but I’ve also done a fair amount of freelance work (around 1 YOE) for clients.
I have a couple of small open-source projects on GitHub.

Hi! I'm a computational scientist pivoting fully out of the wet lab into data engineering. My background is in systems neuroscience, building MATLAB codebases to analyze and quantify preclinical biomarkers in animal models.
Recent work:
• Cloud-native analytics pipeline for human EEG data - uses Python for ingesting, Snowflake to store cleaned raw data, dbt to model sleep architecture, average band power, and overall orchestration.
• Pipeline for time-series data visualizations, done in Python, Docker, and Nextflow.
Starting Georgia Tech's OMSCS program in January to deepen CS fundamentals.
I'm looking for a full-time position within computational science or data engineering. I'm particularly interested/strong in high-frequency time-series data analysis (e-phys, biosignals, energy grids, etc.). I'm a quick learner and am really eager to pick up additional stacks and technologies.

Resume: https://bit.ly/3B3o65M (It links to my CV repo at Github, pinky promise. You can also visit github.com/<hnusername>.)
I'm not actively looking (hence why my resume link is obfuscated like that) but I'm at least interested in getting a feel for the market right now. That said, I'm willing to consider a position with a great fit for my skill set and career goals.
Here's my pitch: I have experience in a multitude of industries and positions. From improving legacy infra and processes in an established telco company to scaling a fast-moving startup from 200K to 2M users. In my free time, I love writing Code That Is Poetry but day-to-day I am not an idealist engineer who doesn't compromise. Well-engineered code is clean and correct but correct above all else.
Oh, also, I'm great at writing documentation. I consider myself introverted but apparently my communication skills are above average for Software Engineers. I also pride myself on my humility and modesty.
I'm currently a backend engineer developing features and improving infra for an online game with millions of daily active users. I'd love to explore other technical positions in the games industry short of joining a AAA studio because (a) I don't want to crunch and (b) my skill set does not lay that way; other tech-creative industries would also appeal to me! Another particular interest is in B2C businesses where the 'C' is software developers. I'd love to chat and network about opportunities; if you think you have a product that could benefit from my skill set, drop me a line!

Summary: I’m a full-stack engineer who specializes in building fast, clean MVPs and shipping product without the corporate overhead. I’ve helped founders and small teams build AI-powered platforms, automation tools, and SaaS dashboards from zero → production. I’m comfortable owning features end-to-end — front-end, back-end, architecture, deployments — and working async across time zones.
I’m looking for roles where I can collaborate directly with founders, move quickly, and build software that actually gets used. Contract, fractional, and full-time opportunities welcome.

I am a full-stack developer with 6 years of experience working on SaaS products. My preference skews toward back-end development. I have experience across the whole stack and software development lifecycle, including infrastructure management, supporting production, database evolution, and CI/CD pipelines.
At my current company I lead the effort in adopting DevOps principles such as trunk based development, continuous integration, continuous deployment, feature flagging, incremental rollout strategies, and tracking of DORA metrics. For me, it is not enough to develop features or bug fixes in isolation. Understanding the whole process of how the code that I write gets in front of end users and makes an impact for them is of the utmost importance.
I am looking for my next full-time opportunity. In person opportunities would be my preference, but I am also open to remote work. I would be particularly ecstatic about any opportunity that would allow me to further refine my Rust skills. Thank you!

I'm a backend engineer with ~7 years of experience, most recently in the Risk division at Stripe for 3.5 years. On my teams, I've been known for making myself an expert on complex code and data, for being an excellent debugger and reviewer, for improving efficiency (on my last team, I took our core cron job's runtime from 8 hours to 15 minutes), and for working to invest in technical foundations.
I'm especially interested in complex technical problems, working with data and databases, and gaining new skills.

Code review, mentoring. Product work. Tech lead experience.
Résumé/CV: https://dmitry.cheryasov.info/resume/with-intro/
Email: in the resume.
I'm an experienced software engineer, looking for a hands-on senior software engineer / tech lead position, backend-leaning, with significant frontend skills. I worked at companies of all kinds, from seed-stage startups to literal FAANG.
I always end up working in close interaction with product people, stakeholders, and (if lucky enough) prospective users. I'm used to working cross-functionally and cross-team, improving communication, coordinating work of several teams to build and operate the thing which the business needs. I prefer building the right thing without haste, but know how to prioritize shipping the most impactful changes sooner.
I value autonomy and high impact. I built things from a nebulous idea to a final implementation and production launch. I evolved large existing systems, including frontend, backend, and databases.
I'm glad to communicate with people, to mentor fellow engineers when appropriate, to coordinate work, but I'm not trying to become a full-time people manager. My north star is people like John Carmack or Rob Pike.
Location: US Northeast / Greater Boston Remote: Yes, Remote preferred Willing to relocate: For the right fit, NYC or Europe.

Technologies: Are listed on my resume and gravitate around fullstack. To get past bad filters, I enumerate TypeScript React Python Scala Elixir Tailwind Linux Node Kotlin Android Docker Git and PostgreSQL, Supabase.
Seeking: Series B -ish, 20-50 headcount-ish, bonus points for work in Health, Education, or Environmental sectors. Hybrid 40% in the Boston metro is ideal, but full remote is fair game, and if you are still reading, have a wonderful day and make a stranger smile.
Statement: Hire me for versatility as a polyglot agnostic builder of stuff, mentorship capacity to strengthen your whole team, bulletproof optimism in a fast-paced and uncertain world, a low-maintenance and well-behaved ego, and the occasional classy dad joke (no, I don't have kids).

I'm primarily a startup contractor but open to a FTE founding engineer position with the right early stage startup. I'm flexible on salary but equity only is not an option. Open to Fractional CTO with the right pitch.
25+ years of experience in software development and been with the web since the early days.
15+ years in the startup space and nearly a decade building for non-profits before that. I can bring a breadth of experience that few can.
My preferred stack is Golang, HTML+CSS+JS and Sqlite but I have years of experience with Nodejs, React, Typescript, MySQL, Postgres, MongoDB, etc. Years ago I used PHP for over a decade then moved on and way back when I started out with Perl, Apache and Oracle.
Being an early-stage "one man army" contractor, I have a working understanding of ux/ui design, sysadmin and data science so I can fill those gaps when needed.
Been learning about diffusion models for a year now and would love to work in that space.
Drop an email or if you're in or near Manhattan, let's meet for coffee and talk shop.

I'm a CTO, expert engineer, and data professional interested in team-building, consulting and architecting data pipelines. At Edmunds.com, I worked on a fairly successful ad-tech product and my team bootstrapped a data pipeline using Spark, Databricks, and microservices built with Java, Python, and Scala.
At ATTN:, I re-built an ETL Kubernetes stack, including data loaders and extractors that handle >10,000 API payload extractions daily. I created SOPs for managing data interoperability with Facebook Marketing, Facebook Graph, Instagram Graph, Google DFP, Salesforce, etc.
More recently, I was the CTO and co-founder of a gaming startup. We raised over $6M and I was in charge of building out a team of over a dozen remote engineers and designers, with a breadth of experience ranging from Citibank, to Goldman Sachs, to Microsoft. I moved on, but retain significant equity and a board seat.
I am also a minority owner of a coffee shop in northern Spain. That I'm a top-tier developer goes without saying. Further, I'm also interested in flexing my consulting muscle and can help with best practices, architecture, and hiring.
Would love to connect even if it's just for networking!
